mine is with jevco also. first year (september 2010) was $1549. and i had only written my test two days before.
i then took the mc course two weeks later.
no discounts immediately upon passing the course(unlike other insurers), but the second year is $1000. i did some online comparisons, and so far jevco has the best price for me.

2011 RTS se5 with complete BRP chrome pkg etc. etc. 65 with clean record. $2500 deductible for both collision and comprehensive. Total premium for the RTS was $ 750.00. Local Insurance Company (AXA General Insurance) unavailable outside of this Province.

Incidentally, the price of the new RT was JUST above the entry point of the next category up from the 2009 RS se5 that I had on the same policy. It had C & C deductibles of $1000 ea. The total premium for the RS was $ 626.00.

The combined premium for both RT and RS was $1376.00 !

I am reasonably happy with both premiums, especially considering the next best that I was able to get locally ranged from $1600 to $2600 each !!!!

Good Luck with your hunt.

We have had USAA for 30 years and today we cancelled our motorcycles and Spyder insurance with them and went with Progressive. While we were at our local agents office my husband called USAA as the Progressive quote for the 3 motorcycles and the Spyder was less than half of what USAA charged. They transferred him to their Progressive rep and he was not able to match the price of our local agent.

Back in 2008 when I bought my Spyder, I had a hell of a time trying to get insurance, as the SPYDER was not recognized as a motorcycle, come to the rescue the salesman. Jevco was the answer, been with them ever since. Conviently enough , now my current other ins, comp, really want's my business for the spyder as well. POUND SALT, THANK,YOU.

Today I got a 12 month quote from Geico, not my favorite company, and their quote for a 2011 Spyder RT and a 2008 Harley Heritage Softail was $416.34 total for both bikes. Coverage is $250K/500K Bodily injury, $100K Property damage, comp. and coll. $1000 deductable, towing, Optionall bike coverage of $2000.00. To compensate for no Uninsured motorist I purchace stacked coverage on my auto policy. Seems like a great rate, what say Y'all?

Hmm........renewal of a motorcycle in excess of 401cc (* three wheeled bikes) is almost $ 545.65 down from 2011 when it was almost $ 633.55? Quebec must have a provincial insurance plan? So $ 545.65 plus $ 238.00 yup gettin pretty close to what I pay in Ontario between insurance and my $ 42.00 license sticker.

I found a full coverage policy with Nationwide for about $375/yr No medical payments since I have BCBS and Medicare. Also a $500 deductable.

I also recently received a quote from Foremost (AARP) for about 3 dollars cheaper than my current policy.

I just got off the phone with our Insurance broker and he said that Intact/Jevco wants $1660 to insure my wife's (Spidergirl) Spyder. Talk about highway robbery. I guess Intact has upped the rates since they bought Jevco. When she looked at insurance last year Jevco gave her a price of $1300. I have looked at others but they won't take her on because she is just getting her license or the price is more (Primmum). I guess we will have to grin and bear it until she gets some experience. :mad:

$836 for April 1 to October 31. This includes registration and insurance. An additional $150 a year to cover the months the bike is not on the road. This is for $100 deductible and million dollars liability. This includes a 15% good driver discount. In my Province it doesn't matter how old you are or how long you have been driving. Comes down to safety rating discount for years of incident free driving. 15 % being the maximum discount. We can't shop around. The Provincial Govt has the monopoly.

My broker delivered in person my new proof of insurance slip from Intact. They could not process the paperwork and mail it to me in time. She said that week after week the renewals are getting later from Intact.
I would recommend anyone with Jevco Insurance with a renewal coming up soon, check your slip expiry date.

Thanks for the heads up. I was informed last Saturday that my RT would be available for pickup on Friday. I phoned my insurance broker on Monday and asked that my Suzuki VStrom be removed from the policy and the Spyder be added. Figured that a full business week would be more than adequate time to facilitate the swap. Talked to my broker late this afternoon (Wednesday) and they still had not heard back from Intact. Given that I am doing a license plate transfer from the Strom to the Spyder at the dealership on Friday I will need to produce "proof of insurance". If Intact doesn't do its thing soon I may have to delay delivery of the Spyder :gaah:. So billybovine is correct; if you are dealing with Intact you should leave yourself extra time because they sure don't perform like Jevco. With Jevco I never waited longer than a couple of days for an answer. Usually the same day. I guess it is getting to be the way of the world, pay more and end up with less!

Hey there! Would anyone like to help update this thread? My insurance is due in July and would like to see what others are paying around Ontario for their Spyders. Last year I paid $1168.00 for my 2010 RTS-S. Clean slate as far as accidents or tickets. Currently with Intact.

Been riding here in southern Ontario since 1965. Paying about $1000.00 for my 2013 Rt. Ltd. full coverage. Intact wants a bit more to insure my 1994 Vmax that's worth a fraction of the cost. We have our house, two other vehicles and our business insurance with them. I think the cost depends partly on where you live and the accidents and insurance claims for your area. People in downtown Toronto would probably pay different rates than me driving in rural Ontario. Sucks to see what we pay here in Ontario for insurance but if you want to drive you have no choice. Sucks worst when you own two bikes and you can only drive one at a time but have to pay in full for both bikes for 12 months of the year.

Based in Brampton Ontario Canada with North-bridge Insurance,

2013 RT-s,

Driver Lic.type M2-M, no accidents, tickets or claims for 42 years.
2 cars, Seado, house + Northern vacation home in one bundle suppository to provide a further discount.:banghead:

The Spyder cost $1542.00 :yikes:per year that's all coverage, perils and personal extended accident benefits.
$2 Mil. liability, $500.00 deductible.


For the USA folk :)

Brampton= One of the highest cost vehicle insurance area's in Canada partly due to excessive litigation.
M2-M Lic. = I wrote the first 2 test's...was watched driving and given a ok to drive, I drive for 16 months and take a final driving test to finish licence changing rating to a M-M
The -M means I can only dive a 3 wheel machine, not 2.

PS ,, have another company looking at the entire coverage... there is cheaper in Canada for Brampton I know.
